Funke Akindele Sparks Reactions After Allegedly Ignoring Toyin Abraham at Movie Premiere
Funke Akindele has stirred conversation online after a viral video appeared to show her ignoring Toyin Abraham at Iyabo Ojo’s movie premiere.
Nollywood actress and producer Funke Akindele has become a topic of discussion on social media following a moment captured at Iyabo Ojo’s movie premiere.
In a video circulating online, Funke was seen seated at a table alongside Iyabo Ojo and Mercy Aigbe when Toyin Abraham approached to greet them. While Iyabo and Mercy responded warmly, Funke appeared to look away, seemingly ignoring Toyin during the exchange.
The moment left Toyin visibly uncomfortable, as she reportedly walked away shortly after the brief interaction.
The incident has since triggered mixed reactions from fans online. Some users argued that Funke may still be holding onto past grievances, particularly referencing Toyin’s perceived alignment with filmmaker Kunle Afolayan’s earlier criticism. Others, however, believe the situation should have been handled more professionally, suggesting that a simple acknowledgment could have avoided the public tension.
As the video continues to circulate, the interaction has reignited conversations around relationships and unresolved conflicts within Nollywood.
Apparently, Toyin Abraham knelt down as always to greet Funke Akindele at The Return of Arinzo movie premiere but she ignored and kept a straight face. Why though? That’s embarrassing. pic.twitter.com/5vZlcTlyKA
